385 NB Update:
+ Drivers need to expect 385 NB lane closures, as well as closing the Woodruff Road ramp to I-385 NB this weekend.
+ 385 NB will not be detoured. The shifts will occur by using various lane closures to manage the changing traffic patterns with traffic using a single lane during the various phases.
+ Ramps for I-85 from 385 NB will change slightly as a result of this shift.
+ Woodruff Road access to 385 NB and I-85 ramps at I-385 will be detoured for the duration of traffic shift.
+ Access to Exit 35 (Woodruff Road) will be detoured in the early morning hours on Sunday and should reopen later in the day.
+ All shifts are scheduled to be completed by Monday morning, November 5.

Looks like they’re about ready to open this. State Troopers are stationed throughout this morning.

Drove through the area today (not open yet) but there’s only going to be two main lanes? Always thought it going to be three. ☹️

Maybe long term it will be? Otherwise poor planning.

Just came the other way. Main lanes are now open (two). Does look like eventually there will be three.

I don't travel I-385 in the morning for work, but was curious, did reopening the middle lanes improve traffic flow this morning? Looked like it could be a little confusing at first with the change, but hopefully it did.

Didn't have the bottleneck at the 85 exits this AM, but also no school traffic.

True. Forgot about that. Actually was probably a good time to test it out before traffic picks up on Wednesday.

Here is a link to a pic of that interchange. It has always seemed like the most complex in the state to me. Looks like 385/85 will be slightly more complex but not by a lot. I don't see a good shot of 385/185, that one is pretty complex for SC standards. Either way, I'm sure the new 20/26 will become the most impressive.
